Renewable energy has been a top topic for research for decades. Studying this issue is essential based on the need to find effective ways to replace fossil fuels with renewable ones. Climate change is the driver of the transition to renewable energy. And suppose the reason for the need to switch to renewable energy is clear to everyone. The methods provoke significant discussions, which have not stopped for a moment since the beginning of research on this topic. The economic aspect of replacing fossil fuels with renewables is paramount to developing effective business models that allow for the rapid replication of good practices. To this end, various mechanisms of state support and the formation of market incentives for investors were tested. However, the issue of the cost-effectiveness of fossil fuel substitution remains problematic. The issue of energy substitution cannot be considered solely in the economic sphere. The reason for this is the significant number of hidden or indirect effects that are difficult to evaluate. However, this needs to be done to understand renewable energy development’s true efficiency and importance. The global impact of large-scale renewable energy technologies is to reduce climate change loss. One of the most important aspects to study and quantify is the impact of energy and public health. It is well known that fossil fuels, being environmentally dirty, harm the human habitat. Declining environmental quality directly affects the number of diseases and life expectancy. Many studies have focused on approaches and quantifying economic losses due to environmental degradation. However, the question of how renewable energy reduces these losses remains poorly studied. Most research on the impact of energy on the environment focuses on reducing emissions. Such studies are extremely valuable but do not allow us to conclude the direct effects of fossil fuel substitution on renewable energy on human life and health and quantify this impact accordingly. This article focuses on the current state of research on the impact of renewable energy on the lives and health of the population and the costs associated with it. Based on available research, the article reviews the scientific developments on this topic in publications, mainly non-medical profiles.

Education plays an essential role in the national economy and is responsible for the formation of qualified and competent human resources that will act in the labour market as a labour force. At the same time, in the conditions of rapid acceleration of socio-cultural and scientific-technical changes, the updating of knowledge and acquired competencies becomes compulsory today. Therefore, there is an unconditional connection between the sphere of socio-labour relations and the field of education. Despite this, today in Ukraine there is an imbalance between these areas, which are oversaturation of the labour market by some professionals (including economic and legal), and lack of others (including labour professions), labour migration, the dissatisfaction of employers with the level of knowledge of graduates, etc. It requires the modernization of the existing situation and the coordination at the state level of the areas of interaction between socio-labour relations and education sector. In this regard, this article is devoted to the justification of the impact of state regulation of education on the development of socio-labour relations in the national economy, which will be carried out by combining the method of principal components and logit modelling in the software STATA 11. To identify the integrated level characterizing the state of socio-labour relations in the national economy of Ukraine, numerous absolute and relative indicators were analyzed, including unemployment and employment levels, labour productivity, wage arrears and its average level, etc. The results obtained suggest an improvement in the socio-labour relations in Ukraine in recent years. Logit modelling allows confirming, as well as comprehensively and individually, the impact of macroeconomic, demographic, migration parameters, and a set of performance characteristics of the education sector on the level of harmonization and convergence of processes in labour markets and educational services. It helps to define the priorities of state intervention in the field of state regulation of education. The set calculations form the basis of further research of authors in the field of the specified problems. Keywords state regulation of education, socio-labour relations, national economy, labour market, binary logit modelling.

The article summarizes the arguments and counter-arguments within the scientific discussion on the availability of medical services for the rural population. The main purpose of the study is to analyze the current principles of state policy of Ukraine in the field of health and accessibility and quality of health care in rural areas. Systematization of literature sources and approaches to solving the problem of access to health services has shown that many problematic issues in the field of access to health services in rural areas in Ukraine and around the world, related to investment, personnel management and effective government regulation. The urgency of solving this scientific problem is that medical care should be provided in all regions and agglomerations of the country equally effectively and focus on patient requests. The study of the availability of medical care in rural areas in the article is carried out in the following logical sequence: bibliometric analysis of research, the next step is a survey of consumers of medical services on the basis of the district hospital; analysis of the results of the survey of respondents; providing guidance on key health issues and areas. The methodological tools of the study were survey methods and expert assessments, comparative and bibliometric analysis, the study period was chosen 2011-2021. The object of the study was the Sumy Central District Clinical Hospital, as it provides services to patients living in rural areas. The study empirically confirms and theoretically proves that there are problems with having a family doctor in families, as 1% of respondents indicated that they do not have a family doctor and have not consulted him, while more than half of respondents are satisfied with the result of a doctor’s visit, however, a significant share did not indicate the exact answer, which gives reason to think about the existing problems that led to such results. The results of the study can be useful for further research and recommendations for future opportunities to effectively influence the development of access to health services in rural areas and at the same time improve and enhance the quality of services provided in cities.
